Josephine Ruiz Pizano

July 1920 Jan. 20, 2011

Josephine Pizano entered into eternal rest on Thursday at the age of 90. She was born in Riverside and was loved by all who knew her. She was our strength and home of refuge. She loved her garden of flowers, home and family most of all. May her garden grow, as she has made ours grow. For the greatest love you will find is to love and be loved in return as she always did this. When we are walking, she will always be a half step behind us.

She is the mother of sons, George and Louie Ayala, and Robert Pizano; and daughter, Yolanda Greer. She is loved by her son-in-law, Jim Greer; daughter-in-law, Laverne George; and many grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, John B. Pizano. She will be dearly missed. We love you mom.
